          2005 - 2007 PERFORMANCE   SHARE AGREEMENT
       AS AMENDED AND RESTATED AS OF JANUARY 16, 2007
                             
     This      2005/2007     Performance     Share     Agreement
("Agreement")   is   amended and restated as   of   January   16,
2007, by and between AMR Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the   "Corporation"), and an officer or key employee of   one
of   the   Corporation's Subsidiaries (the "Employee"   or   the
"Recipient")   as   identified in the   notification   sent   the
Employee described below (the "Notification").
    
     WHEREAS,   pursuant   to the 2005/2007 Performance   Share
Plan for Officers and Key Employees, as amended and restated
as   of   January 16, 2007 (the "Plan") and as adopted by   the
Board   of   Directors of the Corporation (the   "Board"),   the
Compensation   Committee of the Board (the   "Committee")   has
determined   to make an award (the "Award", as set   forth   in
the   Notification) to the Employee (subject to the terms   of
the   Plan   and   this   Agreement), as an inducement   for   the
Employee   to   remain an employee of one of the Corporation's
Subsidiaries   during   the time frame   of   2005-2007   and   to
retain and motivate such Employee during such employment.
    
     This   Agreement   sets   forth the terms   and   conditions
attendant to the Award under the Plan.

     1.      Grant   of   Award.    Subject   to   the   terms   and
conditions   of   this   Agreement,   the   Recipient   is   hereby
granted   an   Award   as of the grant date set   forth   in   the
Notification.    The   Award   shall   vest,   if   at    all,    in
accordance   with Section 2 of this Agreement.   On   the   date
the   Award   vests (if at all), the Recipient will receive   a
combination of cash and the Corporation's Common Stock.   The
Committee   will   determine the amount of   the   Award   to   be
distributed   in   cash,   if any (the "Cash   Award")   and   the
amount   of   the   Award   to   be   settled   in   shares   of   the
Corporation's Common Stock (the "Stock Distribution").    The
Cash   Award will be distributed on April 30, 2008 (such Cash
Award   will be made pursuant to the Annual Incentive   Plan).
The Stock Distribution will occur on or about April 17, 2008
(such   Stock Distribution will be made from and pursuant   to
the   AMR   Corporation   1998 Long   Term   Incentive   Plan,   as
amended   (the "LTIP")).   The sum of the Cash Award   and   the
Stock   Distribution will equal the product of (a)   the   Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock on April 16, 2008, and   (b)
the number of shares of Common Stock comprising the Award.
    
     2.    Vesting.

     (a)   The Award will vest, if at all, in accordance with
Schedule A, attached hereto and made part of this Agreement.
    
     (b)   In the event Employee's employment with one of the
Corporation's Subsidiaries is terminated prior to the end of
the   three   year measurement period set forth in Schedule   A
(the   "Measurement   Period") due to   the   Employee's   death,
"Disability"   (as   defined in section 409A(a)(2)(C)   of   the
Internal   Revenue   Code of 1986, as amended   (the   "Code")),
Retirement (subject to the second paragraph of Section 4) or
termination not for Cause (each an "Early Termination"), the
Award will vest, if at all, on a pro-rata basis and will   be
distributed   to   the   Employee (or,   in   the   event   of   the
Employee's death, the Employee's designated beneficiary   for
purposes   of   the Award, or in the absence of   an   effective
beneficiary designation, the Employee's estate).    The   pro-
rata basis will be a percentage where the denominator is   36
and   the   numerator is the number of months from January   1,
2005   through   the   month   of Early Termination,   inclusive.
This   pro-rata Award will be distributed to the Employee   at
the   same   time   as Cash Awards and Stock Distributions   are
made   to   then current employees who have Awards   under   the
Plan, subject to Section 2(f) of this Agreement.
    
     (c)   In the event the Employee's employment with one of
the   Corporation's Subsidiaries is terminated for Cause,   or
if   the   Employee   terminates his/her employment   with   such
Subsidiary,   each   occurring prior to April   16,   2008,   the
Award shall be forfeited in its entirety.

     (d)   If prior to April 16, 2008 the Employee becomes an
employee   of a Subsidiary that is not wholly owned, directly
or indirectly, by the Corporation, or if the Employee begins
a   leave   of absence without reinstatement rights,   then   in
each case the Award shall be forfeited in its entirety.

     (e)   In the event of a Change in Control of the Corporation
prior   to the distribution of the Award, the Award   will   be
paid   within   60 days of the date of the Change in   Control.
In   such   event, the vesting date shall be the date   of   the
Change   in Control.   The term "Change in Control" is defined
for purposes of this Agreement in Section 7.

     (f)   Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2(b), if the
Employee is a person subject to section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i)   of
the    Code,    any   payment   on   account   of   Retirement    or
termination not for Cause of the Employee shall   be   delayed
until   the sixth month anniversary of the date of separation
from   employment   due to Retirement or termination   not   for
Cause.

     3.      Transfer   Restrictions.    This   Award   is    non-
transferable   otherwise   than by will   or   by   the   laws   of
descent and distribution, and may not otherwise be assigned,
pledged   or   hypothecated   and   shall   not   be   subject    to
execution, attachment or similar process.   Upon any   attempt
by   the   Employee (or the Employee's successor   in   interest
after   the Employee's death) to effect any such disposition,
or   upon the commencement of any such process, the Award may
immediately become null and void, at the discretion   of   the
Committee.

     4.    Miscellaneous.   This Agreement (a) shall be binding
upon   and   inure   to   the benefit of any   successor   of   the
Corporation, (b) shall be governed by the laws of the   State
of   Texas and any applicable laws of the United States,   and
(c)   may not be amended without the written consent of   both
the   Corporation   and   the   Employee.    Notwithstanding   the
foregoing, this Agreement may be amended from time   to   time
without   the   written   consent of the Employee   pursuant   to
Section   8   below   and as permitted by    the   Plan   (or   its
successor).    No   contract or right of employment   shall   be
implied by this Agreement.

     In the event the Employee's employment is terminated by
reason   of   Early   or   Normal Retirement   and   the   Employee
subsequently is employed by a competitor of the   Corporation
prior   to   complete   payment of the Award,   the   Corporation
reserves the right, upon notice to the Employee, to   declare
the Award forfeited and of no further validity.
    
     In    consideration   of   the   Employee's   privilege    to
participate   in   the Plan, the Employee agrees   (i)   not   to
disclose      any     trade     secrets     of,      or      other
confidential/restricted information of,   American   Airlines,
Inc.   ("American")   or its Affiliates   to   any   unauthorized
party   and   (ii) not to make any unauthorized   use   of   such
trade   secrets   or   confidential or   restricted   information
during his or her employment with American or its Affiliates
or   after   such employment is terminated, and (iii)   not   to
solicit any then current employees of American or any   other
Subsidiaries of the Corporation to join the Employee at   his
or   her   new place of employment after his or her employment
with   American or its Affiliates is terminated. The   failure
